Do people not read? Once again I had to re-install windows and in doing so Windows Vista take your files renames them with an extension of old. I did not use the backup bookmarks method before re-installing windows. Which means that I do not have a backup file. I have the profile page from the location of Users/Louis/Appdata/Local/Mozilla/Firefox/Profiles/27gvbfg3.default. I cannot get the bookmarks to come back at all. I need assistance on this topic.
